Default These viper guys sure love their boats too.


Here are some boat options ....this one is about 36 ft and can do aleast 120mph


This is the middle of the road engine options


This is the combo I would recommend.....but it is well over a million dollars.... look closely it has quad motors each motor makes over 1400 hp each.....it can cruise over 175 mph and can go over 190 mph and the cat is over 50 ft.long.

but why would you want to do 190mph on the water

Its not a matter of "why would I", more so it being "I can if I wanted too" LOL

Thats sweet! Noticed the one was a "Corvette" .

Been around and on a few boats like that while in the USCG here in Clearwater. Still love 'em!

190mph! No way in hell for me! Waters too unstable and unforgiving. At that speed, I want an enclosed, separating capsule, ie: the hydroplane racing paltforms.

Love the open water ocean racers though.....

Anyone gonna comment on the color scheme? Fastest boat I was in was a Cougar 25 MTR that ran 145mph. It won the HotBoat speed challenge in the 90's but that speed nowadays wouldn't get you near the top. I do have to agree at those speeds if you crash, you die.

Boats are where it's guys. Come one now, there is now question of why? Boats are by far the funnest thing's you can possibly buy. I don't care what anyone says, I've lived on a lake since I was 4. There's nothing better than hammering down on those boats.

All the ones you've posted above are pretty crazy though. Outerlimits and Nortech are definately big boys toys. Most of them run $600k and up. A lot of the Outerlimits boats are up around $900K. They've currently got the fastest production V-hull as well at just a hair under 200.

Most of them are all triples though, I've never actually even seen a boat with 4 motors.

If you want to see come cool stuff, head over to offshoreonly.com It's basically the Ls1tech of boats. Classifieds, etc.

42' Outlimits

Not mine, but a good friend of mine's. You haven't experienced speed untill you hit 130+MPH on water.

That's what I'm talking about bro. Outerlimits makes a serious boat, and that thing is straight up baller just to even look at. I've never been in an Outerlimits... But I have been in a '03 Cigarette 42' Tiger with a twin step hull, Merc 575sc twins, and Merc SS#3 drives. We blew by a 36 Outerlimits at 110MPH in 3-4 foot chop That's where it's at man, none of this car crap. Boating puts everything to shame in my book.


I'll have a 36' Apache with Chief Marine big blocks by the time I'm 25. That's the life goal at the moment. I've got 5-6 years to do it.

Boats are so sexy. Talk about a deeper well to throw your money into! Going fast on the water is a totally different experience.

I noticed a few of those boats are made by NOR-TECH....the guy that owns that business has a residence here in cape coral, fl. I see his boats quite a bit around here, especially during the summer. They are all monster badass boats, very well into the million dollar mark. All of them are super sexy boats...oh, and they haul ***! NOR-TECH

I've been 90mph in a 22ft. Bass Boat. I could imagine running 130. 90mph felt like 140mph in a car
